The first District Fair of Orms
by, Storey and Douglas counties
ended Saturday, and was an un-
qualified success throughout. The
exhibits of live stock and ranch pro-

State was good for something else
besides its bountiful stores of pre-
cious minerals in the mountains.
Nevada is awakening from its dor

KEEPING BUTTER.

A lady writes on this subject as fol-
lows In the first place, am careful
not to pack any but sweet, firm butter !;
no soft, oily, frothy stuff, such as one
sometimes makes when the mercury
ranges up to 80 degrees or IS degrees in
the shade. That viii not keep, and a few
pounds viii soon spoil really fine butter
that may be put with it. When it is
taken from the churn it is thoroughly
rlnsed III pure cold water, direct from
the well, then sailed and slightly worked.
1t then stands an hour or two in a cool
place for the salt to dissolve, when it re-
ceives its final working or pressing, to
extract all the buttermilk. Still [ do
not work the butter till it is perfectly
dry, as that often spoils the grain. I
like to have it sweet, when the brine
will stand out over it in tiny drops as
clear as crystal. A handful of nice fine
salt, such as use for sailing butter, is
strewn over the bottom of the jar, and
the butter packed in as solid as possible.
A cloth wet in cold water is spread over
the butter. and a layer of salt on the wet
cloth. When the jar is filled rounding
full, take fresh wet cloth as before,
hit it nicely over the top of the butter
and cover it thick with salt over this
turn plate and press it down close, so
it will be as nearly alright as possible !;
now a dry cloth and paper are tied over
all to keep out dust, and it is put into
the cool dark cellar and kept till the
winter or spring following, when it is
greedily snatched at by customers, who
are willing to pay the highest market
price for it. This has been our way for
years"

THE GREAT EPISCOPAL
CATHEDRAL.

The announcement appeared over
two weeks ago of projected purpose
to erect in New York Il great cathedral
edifice, which should be to that city
what Westminster is to London. The
cost of the contemplated cathedral is
estimated at $6,0O0,u0O. The first an.
nouncement of this costly edifice was
variously commented upon, especially
as so many worthy enterprises are ask
ing for aid. Christian churches out
side of the Episcopal order were not
alone in their criticisms, but Episcopal
clergymen are mentioned as question
ing such costly undertaking, while
there is such a demand for funds for
missionary and educational objects.
AS the true intent of this projected ca
thedral is becoming understood, it is
possible churches outside the Episcopal
are regarding it with more favor. A
Presbyterian in New York put down a
subscription of 100000. 1t was at
once asked, does not this Presbyterian
know that there are churches of his
own over all the land that are strug-
Cling to maintain their existence for
the want of funds? This outside
giver says he sees in this movement a
tendency TO the long-desired unifica-
ton of churches holding the same
fundamental doctrines, and differing
only in matters of minor Importance.

LITERARY WEEK.

Last week might properly have been
called literary week it was general
time for bringing to clos e, prior to
the usual summer vacations, colleges,
academies, high schools and the
public schools. A more than usual
degree of interest appears to have at
tached to these institutions of learning
the present year, which is one of the
encouraging features of the times.
The future safety of the country de-
ponds largely OH the general diffusion
of education among the millions of
our population. The great inflow of
foreign immigration to this country
for months pasta population per-
haps not all unlettered, but to a large
extent ignorant of our laws, institu-
tions, and of our American manner of
doing business-demands increased en-
couragement of schools. Foreigners
who come to this country should ex-
pect to conform to American customs
and usages, and not bring their home
regulations with them, to antagonize
those which have been established
here. If foreigners do not like the
methods of doing things in the United
States, they had better remain at home
and not come out here to interfere
The times now demand more than
ordinary effort to increase the volume
of education in order to counterfeit the
influence Of the swarms of immigrants
arriving on our shores, coming mostly
from the lower and illterate classes of
Europe. The only power that can be
best relied upon to control these masses
of people, who will speedily have a
voice in shaping the destinies of this
government. is the pc wer which is i'm
parted through our educational insti-
buttons, aided by the pulpit and the
press. Education properly directed
will be a better safeguard than fortifi.
cations and military defences. Every
patriotic citizen should rejoice to hear
that the various institutions of learn
ing are steadily progressing.

KENosHA HIGH SCHOOL.

The programme of the closing exer-
cises of the Kenosha High School was
given in the TELEGRAPH last week.
Ever since the high school has been es-
tablished it has afforded pleasure to
note its progress. Prof. Leach, the
present head of the school, is the sue
cessor of a long line of distinguished
principals of the school, many of
whom, subsequent to their services
here, obtained more than q local repu-
tation, and became known as educa-
tors in this and other states. The
public exercises in the Congregational
church last Friday evening were at
tended by crowded audience; many
who desired admission were unable to
obtain room. The exercises of the
evening will not be noticed in separa-
ton, but asa whole. It is sufficient to
say they were all highly crediGable;
some of course ranking higher in the
scale of literary merit than others
The declarations, essays, and singing
evinced culture. The remarks were
appropriate, and The closing words by
Rev. Mr.. Stein well-timed.
The graduates were Charles Leonard,
Alexis Linquist, Frank e. Andre,
Robert Holderness and Laura B. An
DIRE, Josephine E. MARITIME and Charlotte
III. Schroeder.
The growing interest in these annual
commencement exercises, calls. for
larger accommodations. If Prof. Leach
continues his present position as Priil-
cipal of the High School, as it is hoped
he will, he may take his next gradual
ing class

FOURTH OF JULY.

People in this city and county will
have the opportunity to crafty their
various tastes in spending the Fourth
of July. Those who want amusement
can find it from the little fire cracker
to something more loud-voiced. Those
who want artificial exhilaration can
possibly obtain it by way of some back
door. Those who delight in outdoor
sports can have them. and those who
enjoy the dance will govern themselves
accordingly. Those who prefer some
of the more benevolent interests will
find the Baptist church ladies ready to
wait upon them with delicacies CT the
season.
st. James congregation contemplate
q celebration on an extensive scale. AS
will be seen by the advertisement, the
exercises will cover the day and even
ing. and will doubtless draw large
number of people from abroad. Great
pains have been taken to render this
celebration more complete success
than any which has preceded it in this
city for many years.

The drouth is becoming very serious
matter, and, should it continue few

our farmers. The hay crop is past all

POWDERLY ON RUM.

From his recent Boston speech
Now, a word about the great curse
of laboring men, strong drink. Had l
10000, 900 tongues, and a throat for
each tongue, would say to each man,
woman and child here tonight: Throw
strong drink aside as you would drink

1t sears the conscience, it destroys every
thing It touches, it reaches into the
family circle and takes the wife you
have sworn to protect and drags her

man ever goes alive. Applause. 1t

the most damning curse to the laborer

RANDALL.

The crops need rain. The barley is
ripening prematurely, and the quality
will not be as good nor the quantity as
great as last year. The few pieces of
winter wheat look we'll, as does rye, but
the spring wheat is thin and short. The
hay crop is the lightest it has been in a
great many years, but the deficiency of
that crop can be repaired to greater
extent than almost any other. Corn
never looked better in June. We hope
that the harvest will be better than we
now expect, and if it is the farmers will
appreciate what they get, and maybe
really feel happier than they did last
year with their big crops and low prices.
In this connection, we cite the following
suggestive item A certain place in
illinois shipped last year 100 carloads
of strawberries this year the same
place only shipped 60 carloads, the crop
being shortened by the drouth but the
60 carloads in 1887 brought the growers
more money than the 100 carloads of
1886. So, brothers, let us not despair.

aged and state that unless we have rain
in a few days there will not be a bushel
of oats or grain of any kind raised
Cattle are also suffering greatly and the
hay crop is total failure.

HONESTY.

1t is mentioned of certain Duke of
Deyonshire that he was man so strictly
faithful to his word that if he promised
you an acorn and none grew in his wood
that year, not content, himself, with the
excuse, he would send to Denmark for
one > and yet such honesty is not so
general as one could wish, when we re-
member the systematic giving as little
as possible for as much as possible"
which prevails. Some might call it
finical and foolish to be so very particu-
lar about keeping to the letter of ones
word but, after all, does ii not add a
hundredfold to life to be able to count
with surety upon friends honesty, to
know, whoever else is false, he can be
trusted though the heavens fall?
Neither wit, nor ducats, nor fine address
nor pedigree, nor beauty, can take the
place of inbred honesty of word and
purpose these may, indeed, disguise
the lack of it for time, or we may take
it for granted that he who is endowed
with all these graces of art and nature
cannot exist without the chief glory
humanity but sooner or later the
omission will be detected, however
skillfully he may counterfeit it. More
over, he who is only honest from policy
will not be honest long. Honesty is not
garment which may be put on or off
at leisure, as it suits convenience. Who
has not met those who if conductor in
a crowded horse-car overlooks them, or
fails to punch their ticket in the steam
cars, or if an uncancelled postage-stamp
falls into their hands, do not scruple to
pocket the nickel, and use the ticket
and the postage-stamp again. and con-
graduate themselves on their luck {?
g 1t is not my business" one may say,
I" to run after conductor with my fare !;
it is his business to collect it." But is it
not everybody's business to be honest
These may be trifies too slight for
great mind to trouble itself about, and it
may be for this reason that some people
no sooner come into possession of
piece of counterfeit money than they
hasten to pass it off on the most unsus-
picious, rather than throw it into the fire,
where it can no longer injure or impose
upon any one.-Harper's Bazaar.

Mrs. Rosa Ripka died on the 9th,
aged so years She resided in Racine
for 80 years.
In speaking of the strawberry crop in
Racine county this year, a prominent
grower of the fruit said Three weeks
ago the outlook for an immense crop
was never better, and it wasfully expect
ed that the sales would reach at least
$4,000. The scarcity of rain, however,
soon had telling effect, and berries on
high land are ruined. All told, the crop
will not bring $1,000. Last year it was
over $4,000. There are some twenty
agents here, and they are having a
lively time hustling to secure even few
cases for shipment each night" In
conclusion the grower said there would
be about one-third of crop.

Thursday evening, last week, was
largely attended, and the rooms were
well filled. Churches Of the different
denominations were represented, as
well as visitors who represented no

ance was mostly of Young people, and
a good opportunity was had for form
ing acquaintances between those who
were strangers with each other. Mr..
Hammond, the Secretary, made extra
efforts to have all new corners feel at
